Daily News: EVI Hiding The Truth

Rather than disclosing its donors, Education Voters of Idaho, a group championing Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Luna’s education overhaul, is now saying it wants to take back its $200,000 contribution for TV advertising supporting the reforms in exchange for Secretary of State Ben Ysursa dropping demands that donors’ names be released. Sounds like someone has something to hide. It appears EVI was set up as nothing more than a way to launder campaign donations to Parents for Education Reform, both figments of two Boise Republican operatives. Ysursa doesn’t seem to be taking EVI’s request seriously and isn’t letting the issue go by the wayside, filing a lawsuit Monday in state court to force disclosure of the group’s donors/ Devin Rokyta , Moscow-Pullman Daily News.
